Apple’s brand lets them command a higher price per performance ratio. You’re seeing one of the mechanisms of that pricing power.
Your thought, “I almost feel like I have to get at least the 1TB model so I get the 16GB of RAM” is why their models are structured as they are.
- HiroProtagonist 5y agoThat bit makes sense, I just wonder if this is something that would affect the actual usage experience of the device. Will the 16GB RAM variants feel faster than the 8GB RAM models?

If, for example, you run a bunch of Electron apps (Slack, VS Code, etc) and have hundreds of tabs open (I do too) then more RAM helps. Those SSD sizes are more than anyone probably needs unless you’re doing something like high end video editing or pushing huge amounts of data.
